One test showed possible cancer spreading, but it seems there are no symptoms...is this a good sign?

What kind of test was taken? By the time there are symptoms it is usually too late.

SAadly, it is a popular misconception that if you have cancer you will be ill and have obvious symptoms. There are about 200 different cancers out there that can attack various parts of our body. They have many different symptoms. Many can be growing and spreading quietly for a long time before symptoms are seen. Some symptoms must be present to prompt the testing that has been done. If the Dr suspects cancer, there will be LOTS more testing organised!!!

yes you can have it and never know its there spreading all over.. my mother had colon cancer and didn't know it and it was size of a baseball.. they found hers when she was having something else done with a sonogram.. so god was watching over her and the lady that was doing the sonogram.
